This time as she took her walk, as she was crossing the street with a green light, she was hit by Amanda Styles-May. Amanda is only 24 years old. Sally was a cancer survivor. Her husband Bill says that “She was the most giving person ever,” She was also a member of Rolling Thunder Motorcycle club with Bill as well. They would have celebrated their 41st anniversary on Monday. Poor Bill was very emotional when he gave his statements about his wife. Sally is leaving behind two children. A memorial was arranged for Sally at the intersection where she was hit, the memorial says. “In loving memory of our friend and neighbor Sally Ann Okuly.“Many thoughts with this family in their time of need!
